I was at the show at the weekend ... put together a slideshow of photos i took if you fancy viewing some classics and twinshocks .. use the link below http://s631.photobucket.com/user/heathr2w/slideshow/Telford Classic Show 2014
Thanks for the pics of Telford i must get there sometime Here is a pic of one of my twin shocks,Im told the frame is a Ramyam but info is scarce about them.
I was fascinated by the pressed out rear sub frame ... just didn't look like it had much side to side rigidity. But nice to see something different.
Thanks to a good friend i had the pleasure of two weekend with his new build ... couldn't afford to do it myself so about the only way i could get to use one :) Armac Triumph Tiger Cub ...
My M115 Trials Alpina. It's seen a lot of AHRMA trials back in the day. I haven't competed on it since '07 and hadn't ridden it since I got divorced in '09. Late last fall I drug it out of the garage, put in a new rear tube, and it started on the 3rd kick. It's looking a little rough as it's last resto was in '97. I need to go over it again and freshen it up. I love this bike. I sold my modern Beta a year ago so this is my trials ride, period. It's a little heavy but will go anywhere.
Hello, A Dutch man made this wonderfull trial of a DKW RT98 And the moving image and sound: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WSoXo-58EKc We go to see hem soon at the Classic Europoort (Rotterdam) next sunday.
Found another link. http://www.retrotrials.com/-2014-telford-classic-motorcycle-show-report.html Looks like a place you could spend a lot of money if you wanted! :eek1
Any of these Honda two strokes still around? I remember a TLM260 at a few events back in the day but otherwise pretty rare, at least in North America. Just before the Honda-Montesa hookup happened I think.
My riding buddy John ... likes to take his Matchless' for a wash :) He has 4 or 5 in his collection. ... John is the man behind his Matchless Man blog .. if you fancy a look http://matchlessman.blogspot.co.uk
Very nice bikes, these Honda two strokes, rides better then any TLR in my personal opinion, (like a RTL with less strokes) but as you said rare and used bikes are expensive: You find them - sometimes - on display, here is one: http://www.subito.it/moto-e-scooter/trial-honda-tlm-260-roma-86477693.htm
